Best Investor & LP Databases for Emerging Managers in 2025

Which investor database is best for emerging managers in 2025? This guide compares Altss to legacy platforms like PitchBook, Preqin, FINTRX, and Dakota—explaining why OSINT-based LP discovery is the new standard.

Best Investor & LP Databases for Emerging Managers in 2025

The LP landscape is shifting fast. For emerging managers in 2025, precision beats volume. Whether you’re raising Fund I or scaling a mid-sized vehicle, your ability to identify, qualify, and convert LPs hinges on the quality—and uniqueness—of your data stack. Below is a breakdown of the top investor intelligence platforms, verified pricing, and why Altss stands alone in delivering OSINT-powered LP discovery.

Altss — Raising the Standard for LP Intelligence

Best for: Emerging managers (Fund I–III), family office targeting, global LP segmentation
Pricing: $15,500/year flat, no seat-based pricing

Altss is not just another investor directory—it’s a next-gen LP discovery engine built with verified, OSINT-sourced intelligence. Developed by fund managers who’ve raised over $7B, Altss was designed to replace the bloated legacy systems used by thousands of others.

Today, Altss delivers verified data on over 1.5 million LPs, including 6,000+ family offices across all major geographies.

While real-time mandate tracking is in rollout, Altss already supports custom LP research—letting users request deep, thesis-aligned segments by geography, check size, strategy, and behavioral triggers.

Why Altss stands apart:

  • Deep FO/HNWI segmentation with live intelligence
  • Verified contact data + enriched firm intelligence
  • OSINT-based signals (mandate shifts, new funds, co-invest behavior)
  • Real-time enrichment—no outdated PDFs
  • Proprietary LP signals you won’t find on LinkedIn or PitchBook

And here’s the truth: If you’re still relying on the same LinkedIn lists or generic exports from Preqin and PitchBook, you’re already behind. More than 100,000 others have access to that data. You need an edge.

Altss is that edge—trusted by leading asset managers and investment banks.

Platform Comparisons

PitchBook

Best for: M&A, fund benchmarking, co-invest mapping
Pricing: $30,000+/year

PitchBook is unmatched in fund-level and transaction data, but it's not built for LP outreach. Contacts are often outdated, and their LP profiles lack behavioral or mandate context.

Preqin

Best for: Institutional LPs raising Fund IV+
Pricing: $15,000–$50,000/year

Preqin remains strong in allocator mandates—if you're raising $500M+—but many users report stale contact info and a clunky interface.

FINTRX

Best for: Family office firm mapping
Pricing: $18,000+/year

FINTRX has good firm-level data and ownership trees, but lacks mandate visibility, enrichment layers, and behavioral intelligence. Think of it as a CRM for private wealth, not an LP targeting platform.

Dakota Marketplace

Best for: LP event access + relationship tracking
Pricing: $15,500/year + $1,000/user

Dakota is community-driven and solid for tracking allocator conversations, but it lacks deep LP segmentation, especially around family offices or alt strategies.

With Intelligence

Best for: Monitoring allocator news + media flow
Pricing: $18,000+/year

Provides real-time allocator press coverage and LP movement—but not verified contacts or outreach capability.

Dealroom

Best for: EU startup discovery + venture benchmarking
Pricing: $12,000+/year

Great for top-of-funnel startup tracking in Europe, but not built for LP identification or fundraising workflows.
